    If only it worked that way...

    AT&T wanted to know why I hadn't paid their bill.

    "Oh", I said, "All my dollars are busy right now. Your bill has been put in a line and will be paid just as soon as some of my dollars become available. Please be patient, as your bill is important to me."

    "You can't do that!," they objected.

    "Sure can ..." I replied, "I subscribe to Bill Waiting."

        I used to work with a guy who was always delinquent with his bills. One day, while eating lunch, he got a call from the phone company asking when he was going to pay. He told them, 'you're in the hat, maybe you'll get lucky this month'. I thought that was the funniest thing I'd ever heard, until the guy on the other end of the line started to protest. He responded with 'you'd better be nice to me, or you won't even go in the hat next month'!

          Those are great responses!!! Too Funny. I think I"ll tell them that I'm waiting for my bailout check.

            How about putting them on hold with "Due to the popularity of my money, you may experience long wait times, please continue to wait.." and some nice on hold music.

              Tell them "I'd be more than happy to pay the bill as soon as AIG returns the bailout money I sent them."

              Next time they call, change it to Citigroup, and so on and so on.

              If at first you don't succeed, deny you were trying in the first place.
